An unusual copper alloy Roman brooch. It is a bow brooch, but very short, and has mouldings which are suggestive of both fly brooches and phallic symbols. It may be a trumpet headed variety, but the head is very thick and rounded, and is not a clear trumpet mouth. The head is decorated with an arched line which divides the plain area above from a stippled area below. There is a transverse concave groove across the top of the bow, and the rest of the bow is decorated with curved lines which are far apart at the top, and close together at the base. The area between the lines is stippled and the outer areas are plain. These lines have the appearance of insect wings folded over the fly's body. The foot is bulbous. This makes it look a little like a phallus. The bow is a rounded rectangle in section. Behind the foot is a wide projecting tab which was presumably the catchplate, though no catch survives. The edges are rounded and worn making it impossible to tell if there are breaks. Behind the head is a tubular housing holding an iron axis bar and the hinge part of an iron pin. The rest of the pin does not survive. A close parallel for this unusual small brooch has not yet been found, but the similarity to both fly brooches and phallic brooches suggest a second century date.<\/p>","findofnote":null,"secwfstage":"4","updated":"2012-05-28 10:23:00","county":"SOUTH YORKSHIRE","knownas":null,"fourFigure":"SE3703","lat":"53.523208","lon":"-1.429808","easting":"437900","northing":"403100","i":"382953","filename":"PAS_1792_brooch.jpg"},{"id":"496786","old_findID":"SWYOR-AFFB56","objecttype":"COIN","broadperiod":"POST MEDIEVAL","dateFrom":"1636","dateTo":"1644","created":"2012-04-03 14:48:40","description":"

This is a mule with a type Vd obverse and a type VI reverse. Muling between types V and VI is quite common. Type Vd is the commonest variety of type V obverse and can be identified by the letter P having a very long foot and the letter A being slightly bow-legged. However, this example appears to have an E on the breast, which indicates that it is a rare variety of Vd\/VI mule, struck from an obverse die intended for the York mint (E standing for Eboracum). Stewartby explains that in 1464\/5 there was a re-coinage and Royal mints were opened at Bristol, Coventry, Norwich and York. The York mint was opened slightly later than the others and never received any type V dies. It is likely however, that at least one type V die was produced for York, but because the type VI coins were about to be introduced, it was never sent out. This type V die may have been altered and used by the London mint.
